AMD Catalyst 14.4 On Linux With Radeon R3 APU Graphics

Phoronix: AMD Catalyst 14.4 On Linux With Radeon R3 APU Graphics

Tested yesterday at Phoronix was the AMD Catalyst 14.4 Linux performance where several newer, high-end graphics cards were tested from a Core i7 Haswell system. With that hardware, there was little in the way of OpenGL performance changes except for a couple of tests. Several Phoronix readers expressed interest in Catalyst 14.4 AMD AM1 APU tests in seeing if there are any improvements for the new APUs with Radeon R3 Graphics or performance improvements in general out of Catalyst 14.4 for reduced OpenGL overhead on lower-end processors. In this article are Catalyst 14.3 vs. 14.4 Ubuntu Linux benchmarks with an AMD Athlon 5350.

To both Michael and the original poster, I heard that with Broadwell the "Iris Pro" (aka eDRAM) tech is coming to desktop processors to help compete with AMD APU's. So benchmarks might be possible then, price allowing.

I honestly want to see more Intel Iris 5200 graphics benchmarks thrown in. That thing is a beast, and would put shame to the Radeon HD 8400.

What is the lowest price for the CPU with Iris Pro 5200? i5-4570R maybe? That is not anywhere near 50 € pricetag, nor wattage usage of Athlon 5350... i5-4570R maybe i think is nearly comparabile with A10-7850K with performace per watt/cost . A10-7850K need more watts - but cost less, i5-4570R slighly better performant and need less watts - but costs more .

intel hd 5200 only exist in few mobile cpus.. is the best igpu in the market but to expensive
